BABY-WEARING LATIN DANCE
Moms (and dads) get fit with their babies
by learning fun steps to the rhythmic beats
of Salsa and other Latin dances such as
Merengue, Rumba, Cumbia and Bachata.
Baby-Wearing Latin Dance class is open to
everyone. You don’t even need to know how
to dance; the desire to share a special moment
of music and movement with your child is all
you need. Salsa is soothing for a baby, since
the rocking movements bring them back to
the time they spent in utero. Your baby will
love being swayed while in direct contact with
you! We recommend that your child be at least
6–8 wks old. Parents must provide their own
baby carrier.
